Most articles or videos I make touch the topic in one way or another. I do agree with her on it and therefore keep working on improving my mindset.
Her argument is that mindset is one of the key factors to success. Her book Mindset: The New Psychology of Success from 2004, tells the story of her research on mindset and draws conclusions on how to best motivate yourself and others. She has given a TED Talk and spoken at the White House. To give you some background, let me introduce Carol Dweck first. She is a professor at Stanford University and a leading researcher in the field of motivation. In this post I want to share some of the ideas I learned from her talks. Since then I have kept this idea in mind and applying it to my life had a large positive impact. I first heard about Carol Dweck’s research on mindset and the growth mindset on YouTube around 2014. In contrast, seeing the self as a developmental project in progress (the "growth" mindset) can light up paths to self-growth and excellence.Growth Mindset: The New Psychology of Success -Photo by Patrick Tomasso Dweck's empirical work has shown that seeing the self as consisting of a collection of fixed attributes (the "judgment mindset") can blind us to our potential for future growth and discourage us from engaging in constructive behaviors to improve ourselves. By describing the motivational processes that affect learning and achievement, she shows how adopting a "growth" versus "judgment" mindset can importantly alter people's achievement paths. Dweck's research addresses a fundamental human need for competence. Particularly, she studies the role that mindsets play in motivation, achievement and interpersonal processes. She has conducted research focused on the self-conceptions people use to structure the self and guide their behavior. Her work is at the intersection of developmental psychology, social psychology and personality psychology. Her work has been featured in such publications as The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and the Boston Globe, and she has appeared on Today and 20/20.
She has held professorships at Columbia and Harvard Universities and has lectured all over the world.Her scholarly book Self-theories: Their Roles in Motivation, Personality, and Development was named Book of the Year by the World Education Federation. Her research has focused on why people succeed and how to foster success. Dweck is one of the world's leading researches in the field of motivation and is the Lewis and Virginia Eaton Professor of Psychology at Stanford University.
